Subdued mourning

Not as acute as, say, mid-November, but a fresh reminder of the tragic mistake that we've made as a nation, as we re-inaugurate the President who has emptied the public coffers and squandered the nation's moral capital to satisfy his own hubris. Medley provided these appropriate links for the day:

• The Non-Arguable Case Against the Bush Administration (The Nation, October, 2004)
  
• The Scandal Sheet, 34 scandals from the first term, each one worse than Whitewater (Salon Premium, January, 2005)

I can't even take a grim satisfaction from reviewing these, so I guess I'll just add this one:

• Sorry, Everybody

At the very least, a newly engergized minority in this country are going to be gearing up for every election from the Senate to the School Board in the next few years!
